- This invention relates to a method and a device for the control of the machining on a machine tool carrying out cuts for stock removal, the control being effected by processing the signals of a measuring instrument for the size gauging of the workpiece being machined, in order to obtain pieces with the required sizes.
- the instrument measures the stock still to be removed after subsequent cuts of the tool.
- the workpiece has a slightly larger size (or smaller, if it is an internal machining) than the nominal one, and that, after the following cut, the size of the workpiece turns out to be rather markedly smaller (or larger) than the nominal value.
- the interruption of the machining is conventionally controlled after the last cut, i.e., as soon as the measuring instrument detects that the size of the piece is equal to or smaller than the nominal value.
- the technical problem the present invention intends to solve is to provide'a method and relevant device which reduces the disparity around the nominal value.
- the machining cycle is controlled on the basis of a comparison between the remaining stock to be removed after every cut and the evaluated amount of stock the tool would remove in the next cut.
- the present invention provides moreover a device for controlling the machining on a machine tool carrying out subsequent cuts for stock removal, a measuring instrument being provided for the size gauging of the pieces being machined, the device comprising, according to the present invention, a first memory means to sequentially store the values measured by said instrument after every cut, at least one further memory means to sequentially store the values previously measured by the instrument, means to process the stored values and to compare the result of the processing with a reference signal, the result of this comparison being used to control the machining cycle.
- FIG. 1 represents a diagram illustrating the working of a machine tool effecting subsequent cuts for removing stock from the workpiece being machined;
- FIG. 2 shows a scheme of a first embodiment of the device according to the present invention
- FIG. 3 shows a scheme of a second embodiment of the device according to the present invention.
- FIG. 4 shows a scheme of a third embodiment of the device according to the present invention.
- curve 11 represents very schematically the machining cycle of a reciprocating or rotary table machine tool, particularly a grinding machine.
- the ordinates show the values of signals S representative of the stock, which actually decreases by a certain step at every cut of the tool.
- the signals S are provided by a measuring instrument or gauge, per se known and not shown in the drawings.
- the gauge stops the machining as soon as the measured stock indicates that the workpiece size is equal or smaller than the nominal value.
- the measured stock is slightly larger than the nominal stock value (which usually is considered equal to zero, since the measures of stock are made with reference to the nominal size of the piece) to be achieved, so that the machine would make another cut and consequently produce a piece rather markedly undersize.”
- the embodiments of the method and device may be used when the quantity of stock removed by subsequent cuts is substantially constant.
- the embodiments permit reducing the disparity in the size values of the machined pieces, by comparing the depth of the last stock step which has been removed with the amount of stock still to be removed.
- the maximum theoretic disparity possible corresponds to one half of the cutting depth.
- the device comprises a main memory 21 and an auxiliary memory 22.
- the output signal of the measuring instrument (the instrument is not represented in the drawings) is sent to the input of the main memory 21, which stores the subsequent values of the signal S after every cut.
- the auxiliary memory 22 whose input is connected with the output of main memory 21, stores the signals representative of the penultimate cutting carried out, i.e., the values succcedingly cancelled frommemory 21.
- the resistance value of resistor 26 is equal to one third of the value of resistor 27.
- amplifier 24 The positive input of amplifier 24 is grounded.-
- This quantity can be directly used to control the machining, by stopping it as soon as the quantity drops below'zero.
- feed motors for instance electric stepping motors, which allow a very fine, prompt and accurate regulation of the tool feed.
- the device of FIG. 2 can be modified as shown in FIG. 3 in order to be advantageously utilized in these 7 machine tools, allowing a further reduction of the dispersion around the nominal value of the machined pieces.
- the output of operational amplifier 24 is connected to a control terminal 29 of an electronic switch 30.
- Electrode 30 is connected between the output of memory 21 and the input of the control group 31 of a per se known electrical stepping motor 32.
- Stepping motor 32 acts on the tool-slide (not represented in the drawings) of the machine and effects the feed of the tool into the piece in a programmed way.
- the programmed feed is modified, if necessary, by the device of the present invention, in the final phase of machining, as follows.
- the circuit comprising memories 21, 22, resistors 33, 34 and operational amplifier 24 is dimensioned so as to control whether:
- the signal 8, is then transmitted to control group 31 which controls stepping motor 32 so as to carry out a feed movement for the subsequent cut adapted to obtain a machined workpiece having exactly the nominal size.
- control group 31 may comprise a voltage to frequency converter supplying output pulses at a frequency proportional to the amplitude of the input voltage.
- the devices of FIGS. 2 and 3 can be modified to be used when the quantity of stock removed by subsequent cuts is not constant. Really, it may happen for example that said quantity changes, particularly decreases, by certain percentages or by fixed amounts.
- the device of FIG. 2 can be modified so as to stop machining as soon as double the value of the stock still to be removed is equal or lower than the evaluated depth of the next stock step the tool will remove.
- the modified device now suggested can be adapted and completed as shown in FIG. 4, so as to perform functions similar to the ones of device of FIG. 3.
- the device of FIG. 4 comprises memories 21, 22, 35 at the output of which there are signals corresponding to stock values S --S,,.,, S,,
- FIG. 4 The other components in FIG. 4 are equivalent to the corresponding ones in FIG. 3.
- the circuit compares signals 5,, S q, 5,.- so as to verify whether:
- amplifier 24 causes electronic switch 30 to be switched on, so that control group 31 receives signal S,, which regulates the next cut depthof the tool in such a way as to obtain a machined piece having substantially a size corresponding to the nominal one.
- a method for controlling machining on a machine tool carrying out subsequent cuts for removing stock from a section of a workpiece comprising the steps storing signals representative of the stocks measured after the last and the preceding cut, obtaining the difference signal of said signals, comparing said difference signal with a signal representative of the stock still to be removed, and controlling the machine tool cycle by means of a signal resulting from said comparison.
- controlling step comprises stopping the machining as soon as a signal representative of double the value of the stock still to be removed is lower than said difference signal.
- said comparing step comprises obtaining a triggering signal as soon as said signal representative of the stock still to be removed is lower than a signal representing the difference between the penultimate and the last stock measured.
- controlling step comprises controlling, by said triggering signal, feed of the tool, saidfeed being regulated on the basis of the signal representative of the stock still to be removed.
- a method for the controlling of machining on a machine tool carrying out subsequent cuts for removing stock from a section of a workpiece comprising the steps of:
- controlling step comprises stopping the machining as soon as a signal representative of double the value of the stock still to be removed is lower than said obtained signal representing the depth of the stock quantity the machine would remove by the next cut.
- said comparing step comprises obtaining a triggering signal as soon as said signal representing the stock still to be removed is lower than said obtained signal representing the depth of the stock quantity the machine would remove by the next cut.
- controlling step comprises controlling, by said triggering signal, a feed of the tool regulated on the basis of the signal representative of the stock still to be removed.
- Device for controlling the machining on a machine tool carrying out subsequent cuts for removing stock from a section of a workpiece a measuring instrument being provided for the size gauging of the section being machined, the device comprising first memory means to sequentially store signals responsive to the values measured by the instrument at every cut, second memory means to sequentially store signals responsive to the value measured by the instrument at the preceding cut and means to compare a difference signal of said stored signals with a reference signal, the output of said comparison means being connected to means controlling the machine cycle.
